Hmmmm....
I'm thinking about selling mine. I've had them almost 2 years now and they are immaculate! Maybe $750.00 for both...of course you pay for shipping. You can check them out, see "Chalie's Distillate"

Thanks Charles, I'll let you know if I would like to get them. I'm actually deciding on upgrading the drivers in my S18's to something with a higher wattage or having four of these things.......sheesh..My band members tell me they are having a hard time hearing me. Oh well....

Try looking at the Carvin Pro series 4X10 Neo's . I have been seriously looking at them!The Carvins are 1200 watts and more than enough to cut through the "mix". What does your rig consist of and what are you using to power your current rig?
In addition, they are about $500.00-$600.00 bucks.

I'm using two Q10BX-D's and two S18-D's, powered by a Crown K2 and compressed by a DBX 160-X.
Preamps are an F1-X w/an SF-2 in the efx loop.
I've tried bi-amping, running the 10's full range and x-overing the 18's and finally my current set up is running the whole rig full range which I've been most happy with.
Believe it or not the rig is barely loud enough for my band to hear me (yes,we're that stinkin' loud) and I'm used to using SVT's. So, this rig is a big departure from my comfort zone. I love how it sounds I just need more VOLUME! ;)

I can vouch for the new rig, sounds GREAT! Hope you find what you're looking for in volume :-)

Adam, Photos Please!!!!!!!!!!! You could try getting another Crown K2 and that way you could have dedicated power amps. I use 2 QSC 2450's; One for the Bass and one for the treble...my band calls my setup "The Wall Of Deaf" Ah heh heh heh! Maybe you know somebody that you could borrow another Crown from to try out that configuration. I think that would be the way to go, then you should have more than enough thunder to make your band mates testicles shrivel up in their scrotums!! (Tee Hee)
